It can be done mate. City rail to central, central to circular key, then ferry it to manly, then bus it to the ground.

Also there is a supporters bus going down.

I for one will be in Sydney the night before, so I will be there. Let us know if ya head down.

im looking at the manly side and it just doesn't seem to really have what it did over the last couple of seasons. I always remember looking at their forwards going oh god here we go again. But I dont know if it's just me but having horo and buhrer and who is brenton lawrence i dont remember him.
 
Yeah not having Williams and Stewart definitely evens out the playing field now, I'd go as far as saying we have the much better forward pack now, on paper at least, we'll see how good they are next week.
 
Crook as a dog atm but very keen for this game going down with my parents as birthday present. Should be awesome.

No Jason King, either. What's happened to Stewart? I didn't realise he was out until I saw the round one sides last week.
 
Anyone ono how long Tahu is missing for? Better option than Quinney. Glen Stewart was out last Friday and without Williams the forwards did not look so hot. Mattai got them home played all over Hodges imho.
 
Whilst McKinnon did nothing wrong I'd nearly rest him for this game and let fa'alogo rip in to manly scum
 
Yeah, I see this as a battle of the centres, Mattai will try and muscle his way over the top of gagai and lyon....well he's a classy buggar so Quinn will have his hands full

When's your Birthday? Mine (and Neville Costigans for that matter) is this Saturday. But I'm not travelling there. I'll just watch it at home.

When I voted for the poll I think I picked Knights 1-12 but then in my footy tipping I picked manly. I just don't know, this one will be tough.
A lot of tough games this round for tipping

Monday. I don't share a birthday with anyone good just **** comedians like Dane Cook and Queen Latifah.
 
We need Willie and Snowden to run at DC Evans and Foran all game and Smith and Scott to target them in Defence . Tire them out tackling and hurt them when they get the ball imo they are the 2 danger men and if we can shut them down we will belt manly ....
 
Having 3 more days off to recover is a massive advantage to the Sea Eagles.

Last weeks thrashing of the Tigers will mean nothing if we don't come out and compete hard for the 80 minutes.

I've changed my mind... I think Manly will win 22-16

Mattai classy? .............. He 's a big sook who spends half his time laying on the ground pretending to be injured............ Take a look at the number of times he has to leave the ground for treatment.

I would agree with you if we were 10 or 20 games into the comp but 1 game i think we will be raring to go and i have a feeling we will do more than compete with them Knights 32 Manly 12 ...

That is true, but when he does play he is tough and quiet classy...
And Quinn doesn't have that toughness to put Matai in cruches anyway....
Btw, last year when Gagai was against Matai, stepped him and left him for dead to score! Loved it..
Hope it happens again against Lyon!
